I received some initial feedback on this attempt to implement NFSv4 ACL
support in the Linux port; but after making some changes reflecting that
I haven't heard anything else back for a month or so. Is there anybody
interested or willing to take another look at this and help me move it
forward?
Besides basic code review, there are also the following open questions:
NFSv4 ACL support is conditional based on the kernel configuration,
currently only the parameter CONFIG_KEYS is checked (as the idmapper
subsystem is required to translate between names/ids). Are there any
other kernel options that should perhaps also be prerequisites?
In the directory tests/zfs-tests/tests/functional/acl/Makefile.am I
added back the subdirectories nontrivial and trival; however, when I run
autogen there is no Makefile.in generated in the subdirectories and I'm
not sure why.
While I can successfully create, view, and modify NFSv4 ACLs with my
current code, they don't appear to actually take effect when accessing
the file system via a linux mountpoint. I'm assuming there must be some
Linux VFS glue that needs to be hooked up? I'd appreciate a pointer
towards that.
Thanks much…
